Dangote Refinery and petrol marketers linked to it are reported to be lowering fuel prices across Nigeria. Daily Post Nigeria reports a reduction in the refinery’s PMS gantry price to N1,215 per litre, down from N1,250, based on a market survey. It also cites confirmation from Petroleumprice.ng’s chief executive, Olatide Jeremiah.
Other outlets report different “latest” petrol rates from Dangote Refinery-backed marketers and compare them with prices at depots in major cities. Legit.ng says depot competition is affecting pricing and notes Dangote-related marketers selling petrol at N1,264 per litre in one report, and at N1,290 per litre in others, with prices declining in Lagos, Port Harcourt and Calabar.
Legit.ng also covers diesel pricing alongside the petrol cuts, saying Lagos depots reduce diesel to N1,825 per litre, undercutting Dangote Refinery’s reported new diesel rate of N1,840 amid increased supplier competition. Across the coverage, the main shared theme is downward pressure on depot and gantry prices, though the specific figures vary by report and timing.
